I'm looking for a 50s Featherweight in .250. Decent condition with no pads, compasses, or moose carved into the buttstock. Not looking for a collector gun, just a very nice shooter.
Willing to deal in cash or I have a few Savages to trade if need be. Contact me if you've got one you'd part with.

That is the hardest one to find.
No, I would guess the .358 and .243 are both tougher to find in an F. .250s aren't common, but they can be found.
Really? Then what are you doing? Quoting from factory production records? Please share them with us.
Sweet rifles. All the F's are.
My bro got a sweet 250F when we split up dad's collection after he passed away. Still makes me grumble. I did get the 243 300 308 and 358 Fs. Shoulda stuck that 250 in my pile, haven't found one to match its condition.
Shucks, I saw one with Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer carved in the stock, with a compass for a nose. Guess you wouldn't want that one, Phil.
Sounds like that one may have been owned by Gene Autry. I'd pay double for a collector's item like that.
Thought I had one located for ya at a good price, but then I noticed it was for sale in Canada. Oops. I've got a rat, but it needs a new buttstock.
I have seen many hundreds of 99s over the last 10 years.
Still havent yet seen (in person) a 99F in 250.
I believe that rudolph gun belonged to Burl Ives

I'll be sending one in his direction. Don't know if he wants more than one?
